Nicholson Disses Nicotine?

JNICHOLSON041505_05.jpg Jack Nicholson's been a devoted smoker for most of his life - but to hear him talk about it now, he's wishing he'd never picked up the habit!

Extra reports that the Tinseltown legend touched on the subject while talking to the LA Times yesterday, describing smoking as "stupid" and professing to be afraid of the effects his pack-a-day routine has had on his body.

"The real fear," Nicholson is quoted as saying, "is going through now the process and thinking, 'I'm dying of stupidity.'"

Hey, no argument from us there!



C'mon, Jack - it's never too late to quit!

I definitely need to quit, must try nicotine gum. They could at least make that stuff cheaper.

I started smoking when I was 16. I quit at 50. One day I had the flu w/sore throat, etc. and it actually hurt to smoke but I still kept trying. Finally I said forget it and didn't smoke for 3 days cuz my throat still hurt. I didn't even miss smoking so I just never lit up again. That was two years ago. I heard somewhere that the average person quits about 7 times before it 'sticks'. I NEVER thought I'd quit even though I knew I shouldn't smoke. And then it just happened. It was like a gift. I'm so proud of myself for not lighting up after I recovered from that flu.

Anyone who wants to stop smoking? you've got to read Allan Cars book, "Give Up Smoking the Easy Way" I read it, changed my life. Nicotine is not that addictive, this book will change your perceptions.

I agree. I'm a smoker and its not the nicotine I'm addicted to, its the habit.
I tried this new medication that blocks the nicotine receptor site in the brain, but it didnt stop me from smoking.

Jack! You're the elder statesman of male movie actors in this nation, get a grip on yourself! Book yourself a week's trip to a spa in Arizona, get a great haircut, see a good tailor, and make us all proud of you!!

I'm 45 and I started smoking when I was 17. I was doing 12 a day but when I learnt that my great Auntie died of Lung cancer when she was 67 it was a hell of a wake up call. at age 37 I quit altogether and I cannot believe how good I feel these days.
